"Adorable Hairstyles Underneath White Wedding Attire: A Cute Feature!"

Traditional Japanese Attire: Shiro-Muku ♡

While I want to wear a wedding dress, as a Japanese bride, I also want to wear the traditional "Shiro-Muku"! This trend is currently on the rise among brides who feel the same way ♡ When you think of Shiro-Muku, the first things that come to mind might be the "wataboshi" (cotton hat) or "kakuzuke" (horn cover), which are forms of headdresses＊

[Question] What is the hairstyle underneath the headdress? ♡

Aren't you curious about what kind of hairstyle everyone has under their headdress? ♡ If you’re wearing a Shiro-Muku, you’d want to preserve two versions: one with the headdress and one with a cute hairstyle, right? ♡

I’ve collected cute hairstyle inspirations from brides who wore Shiro-Muku, showcasing how they styled their hair on Instagram! ♡

Hairstyle of Senior Brides Wearing Shiro-Muku ① "Bunkin Takashimada" (文金高島田) ♡

"Bunkin Takashimada" is a traditional Japanese hairstyle often seen in period dramas＊ The term "Bunkin" (文金) represents "kobans" (oval gold coins)＊ Long ago, mothers would secretly hide a koban in their daughter's hair, which led to the high styling of this hairstyle, hence its name ♡

"Takashimada" (高島田), part of "Bunkin Takashimada," refers to a hairstyle with a high base, said to have originated from female kabuki actors in the early Edo period＊ This hairstyle is characterized by the highest point at the crown, creating an elegant shape known as "Bunkin Takashimada." ♡

The "Bunkin Takashimada" is considered the most noble hairstyle for traditional attire, and the vibrant kanzashi (hair ornaments) adorning it are simply too cute! ♡ The bright red kanzashi really adds a festive touch to the Shiro-Muku ♡ The combination of red and white colors is very auspicious too＊

Even brides with short hair can pull it off! ♡ Although "Bunkin Takashimada" is often styled with long hair, there are various types of wigs available＊ With a wig, you can achieve a beautiful "Bunkin Takashimada" look effortlessly, so I encourage those with short hair to give it a try! ♡
